Engineers aboard the British motor vessel Queen Anne in Saint John New Brunswick use a whistle system to locate trouble as diesel engine pressures rise.

Public Health Warning Links Traffic Toll to Mortality Rise
Dr N L Brunette of Ottawa told the Canadian Public Health Association that mortality gains from certain diseases are being offset by rising traffic accidents. He urged public health officials to apply scientific knowledge to fix causes at their source to protect life conservation. The session also covered the trichina worm as a frequent parasite, with US rates about 13.5 percent and Canada 16 percent, and noted lack of inspection for trichinosed pork in both nations despite federal packing houses processing pork products to destroy larvae.
